There is beauty in everything no matter how stark the world is, and Lorraine strives to find a way to make that world come to life. Lorraine Williams is first and foremost someone who loves to write. She is a novelist who has a special place in her heart for all things fantasy and horror. She is based in Texas, and her stories take place within the gentle rolling hills of the South and Southwest. She is a travel addict who enjoy incorporating the worlds that she visits and their many wonders into her writing. She has always wanted to see more African American presence in fantasy, and decided to be the change she wanted to see.

Gabriel's smile made Jada's endless nights of working as a waitress and moonlighting as a stripper bearable. He treated her like a Queen, and she wanted nothing more then to ride off with him into the sunset. But like all wishes made in the dark Jada should have been more careful. Soon she finds herself in a world where fairies are real, and fairy dust his snorted off of marbles tables with parchment straws. Where dolls come to life and wars are waged on checkers boards. To survive she must fight for her life in a tournament that would be the difference between going home, or staying with the man of her dreams. How does Jada make it back home when her nightmares felt so good? Does she even want to?
